His career path eventually led him right back to the university that he holds near and dear, where he now serves as the Assistant Dean of Students and Director of the ULLC program. Listen in while Bennie reflects on what it is that makes Canisius so special, how the campus has evolved, and how he is working to create an even better experience for the next generations of Griffs.
